A school administrator writes: As the war in Ukraine continues to unfold, what are some of those “teachable moments” that we should all use to help our youths cope?
How do we make them better people and more productive citizens? How do we help develop their sense of right and wrong as they see this war take place?
Natali Sevriukova reacts next to her house following a rocket attack in the city of Kyiv, Ukraine, Feb. 25, 2022. According to the Gun Violence Archive, 2021 was America’s deadliest year in the past two decades. Well over 12,000 people were killed through gun violence last year. During that same year, carjackings across the country hit record numbers. New York City recorded 500 carjackings compared with 328 in 2020. Philadelphia had more than 700 carjackings in 2021 compared with just over 400 in 2020. And Chicago has the unfortunate title of being the city with the most carjackings.
It’s clear that far too many of our youths are in desperate need of help. What conversations should we have? How much information is too much? How much is not enough? The fact is that our youths already see and know too much about violence. They see it on their cellphones, their laptops and any other technology devices they own. The video games they play depict violence in a positive light. The only difference is that when they have seen enough, they can turn it off.
